Hey everytime I'm watching a video on YouTube through the YouTube app, it makes the phone incredibly slow, the video and sound runs as it should, but the app it self runs slow and when I lock
and unlock the phone, the silver "unlock ring" moves really slow, it can't even catch up to my finger...
I've tried running full flash content from the browser, and that works well.
Anyone else got this problem?

I don't think this is an issue with the phone. I think it has to do with too many RayWJ videos.

He was just being silly.
I watch a ton of youtube on mine and it operates very well. Always high quality also. If I lock the screen... sure it might give me some lag unlocking. Same thing if I do it during a 3d game. I wouldn't consider this unusual as the youtube or game was properly sucking up all the system resources it could handle.
I don't know what you guys are talking about. It doesn't lag for me. Check Task Manager to see what's running and end all applications besides Youtube.
Yeah, keep your mouth shot. But seriously, it's just you dude. Try rebooting your phone.
I can confirm the OP's findings. I too experience the same issue when using YouTube to listen to some random songs. I lock my phone after the song loads. When I try to unlock my phone it is very laggy and it feels as if the phone is using a lot of memory when it really isn't.
You Tube
Being watching lots of clips using You tube no issues. I have an issue with the sound quality. Anyone having this issue?
Tonight I made a little video of the phone running in slow motion while playing a YouTube video.

To stream and buffer your phone IS using memory. Where do you think it stores the data? Videos aren't small.
I didn't know youtube streamed music. Are you talking about music videos?

That performance didn't look horrible. You are streaming fyi. I don't know about you but when I watch a video... I actually like to WATCH the video... full screen. If I need to do other crap with my phone I'll just pause and do other stuff.
I feel like it deserves its own thread in the General section as the other one mainly pertains to ICS development.
Anyways, my voice to text was working flawlessly at first but not anymore. Anyone else having the same problem?
And if you're still unsure about running it, here's a short vid on it and how it runs.

Yeah hardware acceleration isn't really fully working yet since its just a hack at the moment. That's why apps that utilize it are still weird at the moment. But hopefully he is able to fix that in the near future.

The only real issue I have is when I tap the screen, sometimes it'll act as if I'm holding down on where I tapped. Camera works for me now, but attempting to take picture make it not respond, asking me to force close. Still, it's good been good enough to use all day for me.

Camera doesn't work, any suggestions? It will start up and take a picture but then freezes.

GPS works. Not sure if it's more or less stable than Gingerbread though.

The ICS update messed sth up with the video playback, when watching a video from either youtube app or gallery the screen brightness drops down if u turn the device in landscape mode (notice that i have ensured tht auto brightness is OFF)

No issues on any of the custom roms I've tried.
hm.. srange issue. I didn't noticed any of this while watching videos..
Happened to me today while whatching a video with MX Player. But nothing in Youtube app.
Also another backlight bug: I have my backlight set at 2/3. After I exit camera it doesb't go back to 2/3, it stays at 100%. If I try to set it back from the Sense widget it just acts weird. A lock/unlock does the trick.

the whole ICS thing is weird, Go Launcher went nuts and keeps freezing, Android Widgets PRO doesnt work, battery is dry in no time, cant catch any radio station anymore, mobile podcast doesnt work, contract groups duplicated, this ICS is acting hilarious ... at least by me
Yeah, tried stock ICS in unrooted ROM. The backlight will suddenly brighten up on me.
Stock Sense based ROMs have a few bugs with autobrigtness. This bug has existed since this device ran gingerbread.
Did you check whether you cover the light sensor with your hand while in landscape watching videos?
Edit: you said you do not have autobrightness...sorry :banghead:

This is a feature, not a bug. It becomes a bug if/when it turn automatic brightness to full brightness and you have to re-set it on automatic in settings like it often happened on GB. Didn't notice this on ICS (ROM in my signature) 'til now.

When I was using GB, brightness turned to 100% when I opened camera and went back to my setting when I closed it.
Same thing in ICS except it goes back to my setting only when I lock/unlock the phone.
But the brightness turning to 100% when I pen the camera isn't a bug. It's supposed to do this. Not going back to my setting is a bug.

On both gingerbread and ICS builds it would not revert back to the previous brightness level for me. I was experiencing a bug. I KNOW it is supposed to crank up the brightness on certain applications. NOT reverting the brightness back is what was happening.
I'm experiencing exactly the same thing as the first poster. After the update, video playback will lose brightness and colour contrast and then magically "pop" back when I try to reset the brightness (even though it still shows as maximum, i.e. dropping brightness from an indicated 100% to 99% will cause it to become brighter!). I emailed MoboPlayer to ask them whether it was something wrong with their ICS implementation before realizing that it was happening on every player.
It's really annoying! (Maybe it's time to CyanogenMod it ...)
Stace.
I have experienced this with ALL ICS ROMS. Sometimes is happens, and sometimes it doesn't. Only bug I have in ARHD.

One is of my sensation playing tricks on me and the other is the video i played. Can someone confirm that they have the same issue playing this video? Note that you have to set brightness at maximun.

If the quality is bad, check for dust. My front facing camera will degrade 40ish% (literally) after a week cause of dust build up.

ICS Sense ROMS, specifically. I think AOSP ROMs don't have that problem.
OP, what do you mean by "not work"?
Sent from my HTC Sensation using XDA
I mean not work as in neither using camera or Skype etc. I have used sense roms and aosp. Currently I'm using dan sharpys stripped rom. But like I say it won't work in any rom. When I select it in camera I don't get any errors etc I just get a black screen, I have made sure its clean. Any help would be great!

Actually now, if I switch to it, it causes my phone to reboot?
Sent from my HTC Sensation using xda premium
In that case it could be a hardware problem. I've read about a few people having this problem (black front camera screen on a few ROMs and the camera app freezing) but there seems to be no concrete solution for it.
I'm having this problem too. Ever since I upgraded to ICS OTA my front camera has not worked in any application and usually causes the phone to freeze then reboot.
Glad I'm not the only one, just like worldofglass it happened when i upgraded to ics

Hi, i am also having that problem. Yesterday I noticed that my front camera won't work at all. This morning was working just fine, but I was in my car when I tried it, so I just tried it once. Few hours later it won't work again. Once when I tried to turn it on, phone restarted (but just once)... I can se settings, effects and all other buttons on screen, but everything other on screen is black. I have official ICS, and sense 3.6.
Please if anyone solve this problem or find out it's nature (hardware or software) let us others know.
Thnx!
Any answers for this? Habe tried various roms and even re flashing firm ware but still no front camera. My phone just freezes and force closes any app using the camera. Any help appreciated.

So it doesn't look like anyone's found a fix for this?
Like cartermg120, I've tried numerous ROMs (ARHD, LeeDroid, Elegance + CM 9 nightly) and re-flashed the firmware from HERE. Nothing has fixed it.
I'm wondering if anyone has tried to flash the latest official RUU (HERE)?
I suppose that would be a good way to check whether it's a H/W or S/W problem and if H/W, the phone could be returned for a warranty repair...
Front facing camera.
Me too, front facing camera has never worked since the ICS OTA update. Any suggestions?

Ok so, since I am new to actually USING XDA. It wont let me post into that thread to ask this question, even though I have searched it up and down for answers. I do understand that the OP(randomblame) says that there is a black screen issue after unlocking the device. I don't have that issue. What I DO have is very odd and not mentioned. On specific apps, the screen will go blank to just a backlight if I click on something. For example, in the phone app I can dial the number and everything is fine, as soon as I hit the call button, screen goes blank backlight. Same thing happens when watching video on youtube app, or hitting the search button. I always have to lock it, then unlock it to get my screen back. This is especially a problem when someone is calling, no screen.

That actually sounds more like a separate known backlight bug, one where the screen goes off on system sounds. The devs know about it and are working on it. All JB Ace ROMs have it to some degree. A workaround to make it happen less is to turn off all system sounds in Settings -> Sounds.
After using jelly time 7.2 for half a day black screen bug came back. Now I am back to beta 13.

Thanks for the responses everyone. I believe I might have found a work around for the black screen. It has something to do with the system theme. If you go download any theme and apply it, no more random black screen in any app! This solved the problem for me, I encourage anyone else to test my theory.
